High‐intensity interval training vs. moderate‐intensity continuous training in COVID‐19 survivors (COVIDEX): A randomized clinical trial on feasibility and short‐term efficacy

open access: yesPM&R, EarlyView.
Abstract Background High‐intensity interval training (HIIT) and moderate‐intensity continuous training (MICT) have been widely studied in individuals with chronic conditions. However, no studies have compared these two exercise modalities in COVID‐19 survivors. Objective To compare the feasibility, safety, adherence, and short‐term efficacy of HIIT and

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

The Unfinished Journey After Major Surgery: Interhospital Transfer and Care Fragmentation

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Interhospital transfer (IHTR) is commonly used to access specialized surgical care, yet post‐discharge readmission destination among transferred surgical patients remains poorly characterized. Therefore, the association of IHTR and hospital transfer burden with care fragmentation after major surgery was evaluated. IHTR was strongly associated with care

Postoperative Sleep Interventions and Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Sleep disturbance is a common issue affecting nearly 78% of cardiothoracic postoperative patients. There are no systematic reviews of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) that evaluate the impact of sleep interventions within this population.

Micro‐Nanoplastics Significantly Increase Adverse Events and Economic Burden Associated With Carotid Endarterectomy: A Health Economic Modelling Evaluation

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Current research reports that micro‐nanoplastics may increase the burden of cardiovascular disease with significant human and economic consequences. The detection of plastic particles in biological matrices is challenging and rigorous research is required to investigate the clinical and broader public health implications of microplastics.

Ischaemic Optic Neuropathy After Cardiac Surgery: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis of Incidence and Risk Factors

open access: yesANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Across 11 observational studies comprising 6 471 577 patients, the pooled incidence of ischaemic optic neuropathy after cardiac surgery was approximately 1.5 cases per 10 000 procedures. Coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease and anaemia were associated with increased odds of ION, although these findings should be interpreted in the ...
